The 3 best places to travel every month of 2019

by Mark Abadi From Business Insider

• Business Insider has spent a year finding the best best places to visit in the world for each month of the year.
• Now, we’ve taken the top destinations and compiled them into a travel guide for each month of 2019.
• The best places to visit in 2019 include tropical paradises, rugged outdoor playgrounds, and vibrant cultural hubs.

Over the course of 2018, I’ve compiled Business Insider’s “Best Places to Visit” series, highlighting 13 destinations that are best for holiday travel for every month of the year.

Business Insider considered everything from airfare trends and climate data to local cultural events to determine the optimal month to travel to each destination. February, for example, offers the cheapest airfare to Hawaii, with November coming in a close second.

I’m taking three of the best destinations from each month and presenting them below. The following guide can help you plan a year’s worth of vacations and cover everything on your traveler’s checklist, from famed historic sites to vibrant nightlife, tropical paradises to icy wonderlands.

Check out the best places to travel each month of 2019, and enjoy planning.

February — Venice, Italy

What we said: “Venice is a renowned vacation hotspot in the summer, but travelers say it’s the winter months that showcase the charm, elegance, and serenity of Italy’s Floating City.

“Unpredictable spells of rain often leave Venice’s winding canals shrouded in mist, adding a layer of enchantment to the city’s signature mode of transportation. Tourist attractions like Saint Mark’s Basilica often sit “blissfully empty,” as Fodor’s Traveldescribed. And even if it’s below freezing outside, you can warm up with a hot cocoa at Caffè Florian, where the likes of Charles Dickens and Marcel Proust often visited.

“For a unique experience, time your visit to coincide with Venice’sCarnevale, which fills the city with music, street performances, and ballgoers in dazzling costumes.”

Note: Carnevale runs from February 16 to March 9, 2019.

February: Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

What we said: “February seems like the best time to visit Puerto Vallarta, one of Mexico’s premier beach towns. The weather is perfect — mid-70s and 80s on average — and hordes of spring breakers have yet to descend, giving you a little more room to breathe than you’d get in March.”

February — Curacao

What we said: “Curaçao is a veritable gem of a winter vacation spot, and according to Lonely Planet, it’s one of the most affordable Caribbean destinations.

“Apart from having some of the finest beaches in the Caribbean, the island boasts a diverse history that is manifested in its music, food, and arts scene. Willemstad, the capital city, is filled with brightly-colored Dutch colonial buildings and has countless authentic restaurants and bars tucked along winding streets. The town’s floating market is another favorite of locals and visitors alike.”
